This includes practice in health promotion, health protection, and disease prevention. AGNPs employ evidence-based clinical practice to screen and identify health promotion needs, provide guidance and counseling to meet patient needs, diagnose typical and atypical health problems and illnesses, develop and implement treatment plans, and direct and oversee other aspects of clinical service delivery within an integrated system of health care.The focus of the adult-gerontology primary care NP is to provide patient-centered, quality care to the adult and older adult population.
